Professor Terry Cooke

Emeritus Professor

Professor Cooke's research interests include corporate financial reporting, particularly on disclosure in an international setting. As the "positive theory" approach to financial accounting developed a complementary empirical literature arose focusing on disclosure in financial statements. He has contributed to this complementary literature with academics from different parts of the world and has had papers and books published in the UK, US, Japan and Australia. Professor Cooke also has an interest in financial management and have contributed to the literature on mergers and acquisitions and on the relationship between book and market values of equity. The latter adopts an analytical approach.
